The Papaya Smoothie!

Hi Everyone, Smoothie of the DAY is The ย PAPAYA Smoothie… I know I should come up with a more clever name for it.. If you don’t know what papaya is… It isย a tropical fruit shaped like an elongated melon, with edible orange flesh and small black seeds and it isย Native to southern Mexico and Central America, Initially green and somewhat bitter in taste, papayas are butter-yellow when fully ripe! so make sure you wait for it to get ripe and sweet before you eat ๐Ÿ™‚ 31723051_77d0262450_o All you need is:ย  โ€“ย Half of a Papaya, seeded and Cubed ย ( cut just like you would a melon) โ€“ ย 1 Banana _ Coconut Water โ€“ A Blender ( I use my NutriBullet with 32Oz Cup) * make sure your Papaya, Banana and Coconut water are cold, otherwise ย add some ice OR you’ll have a warm smoothie ๐Ÿ˜‰


**NOTE:ย Papaya is rich in fibre, Vitamin C and antioxidants which prevent cholesterol build up in your arteries. Too much cholesterol build-up can lead to several heart diseases including heart attack and hypertension.ย Those looking to lose weight must include papaya in their diet as it is very low in calories. The fibre content in papaya leaves you feeling full and also clears your bowel movement making your weight loss regime easier.


How To: ย 

  • Put Cubed Papayas & Banana into your Blender and cover with Coconut water (32Oz) and BLEND for 1 minute.
  • ENJOY!

thanks so much for reading hope you enjoy this awesome creamy sweet and delicious smoothie ๐Ÿ™‚
